THE CONTRARY PATH TO LIFE

(Gen 10:32)These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their
nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
(Gen 11:1-3)And the whole earth wasofone language[they heard the same stuff],
and of one speech[they spoke
the same stuff, and they were of one mind:
in our present application, the whole earth has been unified by the computer.
This is a negative type and shadow of what we shall be, “one man” Judg 6:16].
And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found
a plain in the land of Shinar[a plain after this incident called
Babylon: Heb: confusion = our now present and increasingly dominating (towering)
state of mind and world];and they dwelt there [yep, that’s us]. And they said
one to another[significantly, without first asking (consulting) God],
Go to, let us make brick [parenthetically, an altar],and burn them[Heb: set on fire] [then to physically
solidify, but now to spiritually cleanse us]thoroughly[utterly, in imitation (counterfeit) to what the LORD is doing in us;
resulting then in a highly negative opposite outcome].And they had brick for
stone[modernizations, our
supposed improvements, upon what God has given us], and slime[which
contains no water but organic compounds] had they for [instead of]morter[mortar, containing water (symbolic of the Holy Spirit)].

1.let us make = Heb:
to be (or become)
white [the color symbolic of purity]; also to
makebricks: - be white, make
white.

a.(Psa 127:1)A Song of degrees for Solomon.Except the LORD build the house,
they labourin vainthat build it:except the LORD keep
[Heb: to hedge about, guard, protect]
the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

(Gen 11:4)And they said,Go to,let us build usa city and a tower, whose top may reach
unto heaven [these were their thoughts
and aspirations (imaginations) of being masters of the universe];
and let us make us a name [a one-world government was the very clear
intent],lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

1.Commentary:
“scattered abroad…” = (from the
people’s point-of-view): and through our dissolution (disbanding, breaking up
into individual parts, i.e., nations) we become relatively powerless when
compared to the wonderfully intense concentration of supreme power (glory) we
will have if we successfully effect our agenda of unification,
a one-world government.

2.(Mat 5:14)Ye are the light [Gk: manifesting rays; illumination: fire] of the world
[Gk: kosmos (universe)].
A city that is set on an hill cannot
be hid.

a.(Gen 1:5)And God called the light Day, and
the darkness he calledNight[Heb: a twist (away of
the light), (fig.) adversity].
And the evening and the morning were the first day.

4.a name
= Heb: (through the idea of definite and conspicuous
position); an
appellation, as a mark or memorial; by implication
honor,
authority,
character: - famous name, renown.

THE CITY, THE TOWER, AND THE NAME THEY GOT

(Gen 11:5,6)
And the LORD came down [like He did prior to the angels’ visit to
Sodom] to see the city and
the tower, which the children of
men [versus the children of God]builded [Oh oh, big trouble now].And the LORD said, Behold, the
people is one [the counterfeit
of “one man” Judg 6:16], and they
have all one language; and this they begin to do[thereby manifesting the cooperation of
single-mindedness, i.e., one mind, beginning (striving) to form a one-world
government (President Obama’s theology)]:
and nownothing [no sin (adversity and affront to God)] will be restrained from them, which they haveimagined to do.

1.(Gen 6:4,5)There were giants in the
earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God
[fallen angels] came in unto the
daughters of men, and they bare children[(mutations)] to
them, the same became mighty men
which were of old, men of renown. And
GOD saw that the wickedness of man was
great in the earth, and that every
imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evilcontinually.

2.(1 Cor 10:5)Casting down imaginations,
and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God,
and bringing into captivity every
thought to the obedience of Christ;

3.Commentary:
“imaginations” = refers to the minds
of evil men who have attained the evil thought-stature of
giants, being
the most powerful evil men of
their respective time (they thought big nasty things), e.g., Genghis Khan,
Herod, Hitler, Stalin, etc., and each were probable chronological repositories
during their time for the Devil, The
Antichrist host. Not being omnipresent, the Devil can personally only
dwell in one person at a time. If you were the Devil, who would you want to
dwell in (exercise control of)? Who do you think the Devil now dwells in?

THIS PROPHECY IS BEING FULFILLED

(Gen 11:7-9)Go to, let us [the triune Godhead]
go down, and there confound their language, that they may not
understand one another's speech. So the LORD scattered them abroad from
thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off [Heb: desisted: ceased]
to build the city [they successfully built no city and no tower (i.e., no one-world
government), and received the name of Babel]. Therefore is the name of it calledBabel[Heb: confusion]; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the
earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of
all the earth.

1.confound = Heb:
to
overflow[as He did Noah’s world](specifically with oil)[a symbol of the Holy Spirit];by implication to
mix: - anoint, mingle,
mix[with us representing the
Holy Spirit].

2.(2 Thes 2:10-12)And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness
in them that perish [Gk: are
destroyed: die]; because they
received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.And
for this cause God shall send them strong delusion,that they should believe a lie[or believe a liar, The Antichrist, as symptomatic of lies]: That
they all might be damnedwho believed not the truth,
but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

3.Commentary:
Through the permissive will of God in these the end-times, our world is
presently receiving “strong delusion”
(2 Thes 2:11) which is related to and the fulfillment of the Babylonian type and
shadow of confounding their language,
resulting in “confusion.”

4.Commentary:
Is this study important, relevant to the present? Well, the word “Babylon”
(derived from Babel) appears 294 times in the Bible, and six times in the book
of Revelation (Rev 14:8; 16:19; 17:5; 18:2,10,21). What do you think? God bless
you. J
